1982 Mercedes 240d on 2040-cars
Corvallis, Oregon, United States
Okay quick synopsis: The car runs and drive down the road and I’m using it as a daily driver. But it has some problems:
The bad: Left cv axle needs replaced (boot torn) Rear windshield leaks, front windshield leaked but was successfully stopped with silicone Transmission likes to pop out of 1st and 3rd gear. 4th gear works fine. 2nd is okay Cycle glow plugs twice for faster startups. Engine does burn/leak oil a bit. Replaced oil pan seal about a year ago Driver seat could use some repairs, it has tears in the leather. Sunroof doesn’t work, it is siliconed sealed. No leaks I lost my keys for the car. I only have the ignition key now. The other keys were different, so you’ll probably have to get new locks that go with the VIN number. The car came with three different keys and I think it should only have one. Maybe two if you had the valet key. The ignition key might be original with the VIN don’t know. I took off the inside trunk latch mechanism so the trunk is accessible but still held down internally by a bungy cord. Right rear brakes seems to be hanging up. I replaced the brakes, calipers, rotors on all for and still likes to hang up sometimes. Might be the parking brake system giving me some grief. No instrument lights Has good spare tire and jack, but for some reason I can’t find the lug nut wrench. I’m tossing in a 1/2 torque wrench to use just bring your 11/16 socket =) A/C equipped, quit working about a year ago Cruise Control equipped, doesn’t work Missing wood trim around the fresh air vent slider control Wood trim on glove box needs to be re glued back onto box door. Flops around.
The good: Tires are 1 year old. Les Schwab brand Manual windows (for some its good) New tie rods, new front shocks (bilsteins) Les Schwab tire chains Replaced all brake calipers, all rotors, all pads, and master cylinder. Replaced slave cylinder for clutch Replaced both flex discs about a year ago Fog lights work New drive belts Battery a few months old Leather is mostly in very good condition Dashboard is only slightly cracked
I hope this list will give you an idea of what you might be
in for. If your close to Corvallis we can arrange pickup maybe during the week
evening time, Sunday works best Saturday 2nd best. If your farther away or out of state Sundays would be best, Saturday 2nd best. Sold as is. Its my daily driver so odometer mileage subject to change. Thanks for reading all of this! |

France formally moves to ban Mercedes vehicles using contested refrigerant
Wed, 31 Jul 2013That didn't take long. Shortly after a French administrative court gave the French government a ten-day window to reconsider its ban on registrations of Mercedes-Benz A-, B- and CLA-Class cars using the prohibited R134a refrigerant, the government cited an EU directive to formalize banning the sale of the cars. The country's environmental ministry said that registrations "will remain forbidden in France as long as the company does not to conform to European regulations," meaning so long as they do not use the approved R1234yf refrigerant.
Daimler had won the administrative court decision by challenging France's application of a "safeguard" provision in which the EU allows a country to block sales of cars that would "seriously harm the environment." In spite of Daimler's victory, France has cited that very provision as basis for the continuation of the ban.
Daimler got permission from Germany's KBA federal motor authority to keep selling cars with the coolant banned by EU politicians, and is using that national permission as the right to sell the cars throughout Europe. Meanwhile, above that battle, German politicians are asking the EU to let Mercedes sell the cars in France while the KBA does more testing, at the same time as the EU is threatening Germany with repercussions if it doesn't bring the KBA and Daimler into line.
Mercedes CLA45 AMG Racing is ready for a spot on the grid
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Mercedes-Benz trotted out its CLA45 AMG-based racer at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. We first showed you the sedan in the deluge of news and reveals that precedes most good auto shows, and were blown away by the car, formally known as the CLA45 AMG Racing Series.
We were strolling by the Mercedes stand, and figured we'd pop in and take a look at the new racer and its carbon-fiber body panels, gutted interior, and race-sourced aero parts. It's a looker, both as a road car and a track weapon. It's not clear what series the CLA45 AMG will qualify for, although it does seem like a shoe-in for the World Touring Car Championship. Let us know what you think of the CLA racer down in the comments. In the meantime, we've got a full gallery of live images up top, along with the stock images that were posted last week on the Mercedes-Benz Facebook page.
First official shot of Mercedes S-Class Coupe leaks out
Mon, 10 Feb 2014With the official debut for the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe expected tomorrow, it shouldn't be a surprise that some clicky fingers have already managed to uncover an official image of the car before the unveiling. Outside of this sole image, though, there's precious little detail on the new car.
First posted by Autofilou and then picked up by WorldCarFans, the production S-Class Coupe isn't far off from the concept car we saw a few months back in Frankfurt. Like the concept, the leggy production model appears related, albeit distantly, to the S-Class Sedan. The hood and front fascia are longer and lower, befitting of a two-door, while the character lines in the profile are more pronounced. Obviously, the beltline and slim, B-pillarless greenhouse are coupe-only items. We can't see any details on the back of the car, although it does appear that the long hood has a correspondingly short rear deck.
We'll have all the details on the official replacement for the CL-Class when it makes its full debut tomorrow. Until then, what do you think of this lone image? Does it appear that Mercedes has got it right? In terms of design, where would you rank this with the departing CL-Class? Have your say in Comments.
